Maybe it's me being forceful because ToD is an enjoyable series to me other of the same genre includes Rune Soldier, Outlaw Star, Slayer, Detatoko Princess, El Hazard. So in essence did series of the same genre wow in the first several episodes? Or was the fascination towards the climax of the anime? Weak plot? Played the original game? Sometimes the anime can only be as good as the source material. Again opinion differs and the timeline consisting how much a viewer has seen of a given series which we based our opinion on differ so I won’t dwell further into it. |

Ugh!!! Knowing Gonzo, it'd probably involve some utterly disgusting fetishes - Remember Speed Grapher? I enjoyed the anime, but I'm pretty sure it could have made a disgusting hentai. Seriously, is the gutter where a company has to turn to make a buck? |

Yeah, I have serious doubts this is for real.
For one thing, it'd be nearly impossible to make an actual hentai anime that's profitable for a studio of Gonzo's size... The whole reason ero-anime exist is because they are made cheap, and sell high. Gonzo isn't set up to make 1-2 episodes of something for very little money. They are set up to make 13 episode series. The cost overhead for them to start a project has to be far far higher than one of the established ero-companies, and even those have been losing money recently like crazy. If Gonzo wants to pander to something they should look elsewhere than hentai, I mean, ero-anime.

On the other hand, maybe we could get closure on some of Gonzo's existing IPs?
Hibiki and Dita finally consummating their relationship in Vandread as well as closure in Seto no Hanayome, Rosario to Vampire, et cetera. More shows like Please Teacher would be nice (ie where the couple actually make out in the end.) |

But what if they totally revolutionized the field of ero anime? Like, making a 13-episode epic that has stunning production values, and qualities never before seen in ero anime?
Gonzo have already proven to be a company ready to try new things, far more so than other more conservative Japanese studios. Quote:

And you think they are going to fund, themselves, a giant experiment into a format for ero-anime that has never even been tried before? I bet all those people who were ready to try new things are now fired anyway... They'd go bankrupt before they finished episode 1.

I feel sorry for Gonzo... I actually like quite a number of their work.

Suddenly it makes sense why Toa was always being captured and "experimented on" by various people. Yeah....
